What are peoples thoughts on dreadlocks?

I would love peoples thoughts on them
What do you think of the person when you see them with dreads?

I would love your thoughts Silent Alarm
Haha! They're lame. Nothing more contrived than the "I'm sahh chill" look of white-boy dreadies. Especially when you realise these guys are paying like $300 to look careless and cool. Psh.
 
My hairstyle is called a quiff, like this except the sides pointing down:

Willo #6 I heard there's some bushfires in Tassie. Are you OK? :oops:

Thanks for the concern Cooly, I'm all safe :) I'm on the other side of a river from them, but they're terrible. Pretty much wiped out an entire town and while there are no confirmed deaths, there's still over 100 unaccounted for. Can't imagine what Victoria went through a couple years back.
 
Its east of hobart about 60kms Near port authur. Im pretty sure willo is in hobart. I hope i am right

Yeah, that's right Bradles. The most destructive fires are around the Eastern Shore/Port Arthur area which is at least an hour's drive from where I am. There are even more fires spreading in the north of the state now too, but luckily all fires in the state have now been downgraded from emergency status.

There are quite a few people getting quite stuck into them about it, especially in social media and the like. Probably not quite as much in the news itself but there have been a few things here and there.
 
I could imagine. When i went to tassie 2yrs ago i remember saying to my freind if a fire comes through here theres so
Much fuel on the ground it will go forever.
 
Interesting. I do Arts and, in terms of scholarly pursuits, language is my passion. So, being a realist, I've resigned myself to realising that writing freelance forever might not be okay – or I could get too hungry, too tired of housemates, too bored... so I've, recently, been considering doing a government job. I'd have to live in Canberra, but the money would be comfortable.

This is all peripheral and a bit of a fall-back. But I'm interested in how you like Canberra. Was it tough moving there? Is it boring? I've only ever been to Canberra for a few days, and as much as I like the galleries and museums, they're finite.

Canberra is a lovely city to live in if you like a smaller city - it has all the basic amenities you'd expect of a city but not with huge quantities or variety. If you're looking for a Sydney or Melbourne style of living, it will probably drive you up the wall with the relative lack of excitement and opportunities and "stuff". That's not to say that you can't find things to occupy your time, only that the options are more restricted. If nothing else, it's convenient that both those other cities are reasonably easy to get to if you want a weekend away to go see a certain concert or footy game or whatever.

Winters are miserable and cold and sucky. Summers are about par for Australian cities, minus beach access of course. Petrol costs more. We get regional TV channels. We don't get any sort of bulk rubbish collections. We have no local government, just the feds and our own territory clowns. We have all the nice national monuments that you'll probably only ever visit when friends and relos come and stay with you. We have a planned city design that revolves around 'town centres' rather than 'common sense'. We have peak-minute traffic rather than peak-hour traffic. We have a nice new airport with shedloads of reasonably priced parking. We have pr0n, of course. We do not, contrary to popular belief, have fireworks anymore. We have Costco. We do not have Ikea.
